Hi:

You can't enable secure boot with Legacy mode enabled.

However if Windows is installed in Legacy mode, you can't disable legacy mode/enable secure boot or your PC will not boot up.

So the first thing to do is to determine if Windows is installed in legacy mode:

Type: System Information

The System information app should show up.

Run the app and look for the BIOS Mode line about 1/4 of the way down on the report.

If it shows Legacy, then you will need to either convert the file system to GPT or reinstall Windows in UEFI mode.

To convert the file system to GPT watch this video. 

Save any files you don't want to lose onto a portable hard drive first.

If the conversion is successful, you will have to restart the PC, go into the BIOS and disable legacy mode/enable secure boot.

The problem is solved already but thanks for sharing solution .. I just disable the legacy mode and secure boot automatically enabled...
